Unless they have the stomach to escort it's a tough way to make a living specially now that is so competitive.
Corbin Fisher was paying 1,5k 10 years ago, no they might pay 2k but they (usually) require folks who didn't do porno and are either straight or not out. They also don't allow them to escort while filming.
Colby Taylor got paid once 3k per scene but he was under a contract of exclusivity with Falcon and would only do 4 videos per year.
